It has been fifty years that "oh no they take so long to build, better never start" that by today we would have completely decarbonized energy generation if we started actually building them.

We could have also built solar collectors in orbit and beamed carbon-free electricity to Earth if we started 50 years ago.

Heck, if we funded fusion research properly there's a good chance we'd have had that by the mid 90s

Doesn't matter, not it's to late so think about something else

It was too late ten years ago
It is too late today
It will be too late in ten years
It is always too late.

But weirdly it is never too late to be anti nuclear power.

It is also never to late to go full green energies and cut the useless spending such as private jets, luxury yatchs and son on

He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
